Experimental Investigation of the Effect of Copper Nanowires On Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop For A Single Phase Microchannel Heat Sink
… heat transfer and pressure drop results of CuNWs enhanced heat sink are compared with that of bare copper heat sink using deionized (DI) water as working fluid at Reynolds Number (Re) ranging from 106-636. The experimental results indicate an enhancement in Nusselt Number (Nu) at all Re with a …
